What kind of unbelievable jackass renders honors to a flag-draped coffin ...

while wearing a fucking baseball hat, for fear that an untimely gust of wind might ruffle his ridiculous comb-over?
The sheer disrespect inherent in that act defies description.
Every time I think that I could not possibly despise this slimy prick any more, he goes and proves me wrong.

AND all the Sub-Human Republicans in the House, Senate, and Supreme Court are cheering him on, along with all the Republican Governors in the RED states.........

and it's a big deal to him. He would be humiliated if anyone saw what he really looks like. Much more important that who died for the country (or his military games).

Also that rash could have spread into his scalp. He wears those hats now and then when he's had a bad hair day, but lately he wears one all the time.

It definitely appears to be more of a "coverup", than pushing merchandise.

They tried so hard to cover it that a piece of hair was sticking out prominently; I wondered why no one commented on this.

His hair is likely completely really white or grey now and probably MUCH thinner. It also looks like he is using less dye on it as it looks much lighter in color. His elaborate hair covering his bald spot is probably getting much harder as the bald spot grows with age and the surrounding hair is thinner and less quantity.

If he weren't so vain, he would have skilled hairdressers purpose alternatives. Not to mention, he clearly doesn't get how terrible his current look is.

is all white now. He hasn't been a blonde since he was in his early twenties.

I believe that elaborate, ridiculous hairstyle has gotten too hard for him to fix anymore and it doesn't help that his hair has gotten thinner.

I agree that a good stylist could make his hair look relatively normal, but that wouldn't match the Adonis vision he has of himself in his mind.

Believe it or not, THESE ARE ACTUAL HEARSES SET UP THAT WAY. A German upfitter called Kuhlmann Cars makes them, and they make them in two sizes: four-casket and eight-casket. You can also buy them with seating for the family, so they can "take a last ride together." (I didn't make that up. It's on Kuhlmann Cars' website in those exact words.) The idea is, if you need to bury a lot of people at once...like, say, an entire family got wiped out by a drunk driver...you can use this instead of a line of traditional one-casket hearses.

This was six American citizens, from all over the country with different family members. Don't they deserve to be honored separately in their ultimate sacrifice? In my opinion, the government needed to rent them if they didn't have the proper vehicles.. Republican expediency, not Democratic caring.

The six soldiers Trump shat upon were:

MAJ Jeffrey O'Brien, Indianola, IA
CPT Cody Khork, Winter Haven, FL
CW3 Robert Marzan, Sacramento, CA
SFC Nicole Amor, White Bear Lake, MN
SFC Noah Tietjens, Bellevue, NE
SGT Declan Coady, West Des Moines, IA

The military does not provide mortuary services to fallen soldiers in the theater of operations. They are placed in transport containers called Ziegler Cases overseas, flown to Dover Air Force Base, provided with the finest mortuary care there is - seriously, the people who work there are awesome - and respectfully escorted to their families for proper internment.

If you would like to know HOW awesome these fine individuals are, every soldier will be buried in a "dress green" (officially "service&quot uniform, and the fallen of non-Army services will be buried in their branch's equivalent uniform. They pull the soldier's military record, find out all of his or her authorized awards and decorations, and set up the uniform to a standard that would please the pickiest inspector.

Little pissants like Trump and Hegseth aren't going to keep Air Force Mortuary Affairs Operations from doing right by the troops they serve.
